Hi all. I'm glad I joined this list. It's a lot of fun. I noticed something funny about the ailerons on the M-10 I've been flying.
As the yoke is rotated in either direction, the down-traveling aileron hits a stop before the up-traveling aileron. The stop does not prevent the other aileron from moving up another inch or so, apparently due to the geometry of the bellcrank and rods under the luggage area. It does this when the wheel is rotated either way. Is this part of the design, or is this thing rigged screwy? Is it a trick to help keep the wing from stalling at a high angle of attack with lots of aileron? Maybe the stops on the top of the control column are set too far out, allowing much more travel than the linkages are designed for? --Steve ------------------------------ Steve Dold ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ------------------------------
